| 21:05:37 |  Acruid | so it would be one instance of a Role |
| 21:06:05 |  ZelteHonor | So I want to turn my JobPrototype into a RolePrototype? |
| 21:06:07 | ZelteHonor | Correct? |
| 21:06:15 | ZelteHonor | Since a Job is just another instance of a Role? |
| 21:06:23 | Acruid | just like in your yaml you don't have a prototype type for every job, each one is an instance of a JobPrototype |
| 21:06:26 | Acruid | yes |
| 21:07:22 | ZelteHonor | In the RolePrototype, how will I make a difference between a Botanist and a Traitor? A Traitor has a target. A Botanist has a department. That's one of my question. |
| 21:07:45 | ZelteHonor | Also Prototype should be immutable. But, traitor have different target. |
| 21:07:54 | Acruid | yeh, thats the next question |
| 21:07:55 | Acruid | so |
| 21:08:13 | Acruid | data wise, what is the difference between a Role and a Job |
| 21:08:34 | ZelteHonor | A Job is more precise and as such, has more "field". |
| 21:08:58 | ZelteHonor | What they have in common is that they can be attach to a mind. |
| 21:09:39 | Acruid | so Jobs don't really share the same data as a Role |
| 21:09:56 | ZelteHonor | Role is more of a generic term. |
| 21:10:17 | ZelteHonor | They don't share the same data in that they have MORE data. |
| 21:10:44 | ZelteHonor | Thanks a lot for guiding me through the design process. |
| 21:11:00 | Acruid | i mean like with inheritance, is a Job really a child class of a Role |
| 21:11:56 | Acruid | because is sounds like a Traitor has completely different set of data (Target) than a Job (Departments) |
| 21:12:15 | ZelteHonor | Yes |
| 21:12:44 | ZelteHonor | Like I said, the only REAL thing they have in common isn't even really data, it's more a feature, of being able to be attach to a mind. |
| 21:13:35 | Acruid | and you are correct, we just showed that making Traitors a type of Role, and making Jobs a type of Role, is not the correct approach |
| 21:14:01 | Acruid | lemme draw it |
| 21:14:44 | ZelteHonor | In that case would it be more something like an interface? This is what you use for common behavior. Ah yes, Behavior was the word I was looking for. |
| 21:15:41 | Acruid | yep |
| 21:15:52 | Acruid | see, you know what you are doing and don't actually need my help |
| 21:17:28 | |  Muhreen (no pc) changed their display name from Muhreen (no pc) to Muhreen (no pc)#6325. |
| 21:17:28 | | Muhreen (no pc) changed their display name from Muhreen (no pc)#6325 to Muhreen (no pc). |
| 21:17:29 | ZelteHonor | So... we get back to NOT having a RolePrototype, but keeping the JobPrototype. I'd like to set aside traitor and antag for now and mostly get Job working. |
| 21:18:00 | Acruid | that would be the best thing for now, and the way I would do it |
